2 Principles of Value-Based Health Care Delivery The overarching goal in health care must be value for patients, not access, cost containment, convenience, or customer service Value = Health outcomes Costs of delivering the outcomes Outcomes are the full set of health results for a patient s condition over the care cycle Costs are the total costs of care for a patient s condition over the care cycle VBHCD Core Concepts 2 Copyright Michael Porter 2013

3 Principles of Value-Based Health Care Delivery Quality improvement is the most powerful driver of cost containment and value improvement, where quality is health outcomes - Prevention of illness - Early detection - Right diagnosis - Right treatment to the right patient - Rapid cycle time of diagnosis and treatment - Treatment earlier in the causal chain of disease - Less invasive treatment methods - Fewer complications - Fewer mistakes and repeats in treatment - Faster recovery - More complete recovery - Greater functionality and less need for long term care - Fewer recurrences, relapses, flare ups, or acute episodes - Reduced need for ER visits - Slower disease progression - Less care induced illness Better health is the goal, not more treatment Better health is inherently less expensive than poor health VBHCD Core Concepts 3 Copyright Michael Porter 2013

7 What is a Medical Condition? A medical condition is an interrelated set of patient medical circumstances best addressed in an integrated way Defined from the patient s perspective Involving multiple specialties and services Including common co-occurring conditions and complications E.g., diabetes, breast cancer, knee osteoarthritis In primary / preventive care, the unit of value creation is defined patient segments with similar preventive, diagnostic, and primary treatment needs (e.g. healthy adults, frail elderly) The medical condition / patient segment is the proper unit of value creation and the unit of value measurement in health care delivery Introduction to Social Medicine Presentation 7 Copyright Michael Porter 2011

9 Organize primary care around patient segments with similar health circumstances and care needs: Illustrative Segments Healthy adults Mothers and young children Adults at risk of developing chronic or acute disease - E.g. family history, environmental exposures, lifestyle Chronically ill adults with one or more complex chronic conditions - E.g. diabetes, COPD, heart failure Adults with rare conditions Frail elderly or disabled Value-Based Primary Care Tailor the Care Delivery Team and Facilities to Each Segment The set of physicians, nurses, educators, and other staff best equipped to meet the medical and non-medical needs of the segment Care delivered in locations reflecting patient circumstances _Book Launch_Redefining German Health Care_Porter_Guth 9 Copyright Michael Porter 2012

10 Attributes of an Integrated Practice Unit (IPU) 1. Organized around the patient medical condition or set of closely related conditions (or patient segment in primary care) 2. Involves a dedicated, multidisciplinary team who devotes a significant portion of their time to the condition 3. Providers involved are members of or affiliated with a common organizational unit 4. Takes responsibility for the full cycle of care for the condition Encompassing outpatient, inpatient, and rehabilitative care as well as supporting services (e.g. nutrition, social work, behavioral health) 5. Incorporates patient education, engagement, and follow-up as integral to care 6. Utilizes a single administrative and scheduling structure 7. Co-located in dedicated facilities 8. Care is led by a physician team captain and a care manager who oversee each patient s care process 9. Measures outcomes, costs, and processes for each patient using a common information platform 10. Providers function as a team, meeting formally and informally on a regular basis to discuss patients, processes and results 11. Accepts joint accountability for outcomes and costs _Book Launch_Redefining German Health Care_Porter_Guth 10 Copyright Michael Porter 2012

19 Measuring the Cost of Care Delivery: Principles Cost is the actual expense of patient care, not the charges billed or collected Cost should be measured around the patient Cost should be aggregated over the full cycle of care for the patient s medical condition, not for departments, services, or line items Cost depends on the actual use of resources involved in a patient s care process (personnel, facilities, supplies) The time devoted to each patient by these resources The capacity cost of each resource The support costs required for each patient-facing resource UK Plenary Session 19 Copyright Michael Porter 2011

24 Four Levels of Provider System Integration 1. Choose an overall scope of services where the provider system can achieve excellence in value 2. Rationalize service lines / IPUs across facilities to improve volume, better utilize resources, and deepen teams 3. Offer specific services at the appropriate facility Based on medical condition, acuity level, resource intensity, cost level, need for convenience E.g., shifting routine surgeries to smaller, more specialized facilities 4. Clinically integrate care across units and facilities using an IPU structure Integrate services across the care cycle Integrate preventive/primary care units with specialty IPUs There are major value improvements available from concentrating volume by medical condition and moving care out of heavily resourced hospital, tertiary and quaternary facilities _Book Launch_Redefining German Health Care_Porter_Guth 24 Copyright Michael Porter 2012

25 5. Expanding Geographic Coverage by Excellent Providers Leading Providers Grow areas of excellence across geography: Hub and spoke expansion of satellite pre- and post-acute services Affiliations with community providers to extend the reach of IPUs Increase the volume of patients in medical conditions or primary care segments vs. widening service lines locally, or adding new broad line units Community Providers Affiliate with excellent providers in more complex medical conditions and patient segments in order to access expertise, facilities and services to enable high value care New roles for rural and community hospitals _Book Launch_Redefining German Health Care_Porter_Guth 25 Copyright Michael Porter 2012

27 6. Building an Enabling Information Technology Platform Utilize information technology to enable restructuring of care delivery and measuring results, rather than treating it as a solution itself Common data definitions Combine all types of data (e.g. notes, images) for each patient Data encompasses the full care cycle, including care by referring entities Allow access and communication among all involved parties, including with patients Templates for medical conditions to enhance the user interface Structured data vs. free text Architecture that allows easy extraction of outcome measures, process measures, and activity-based cost measures for each patient and medical condition Interoperability standards enabling communication among different provider (and payor) organizations VBHCD Core Concepts 27 Copyright Michael Porter 2013

28 A Mutually Reinforcing Strategic Agenda Organize into Integrated Practice Units Grow Excellent Services Across Geography Measure Outcomes and Cost For Every Patient Integrate Care Delivery Across Separate Facilities Move to Bundled Prices for Care Cycles VBHCD Core Concepts Build an Enabling IT Platform 28 Copyright Michael Porter 2013

29 Creating a Value-Based Health Care Delivery System Implications for Physician Leaders 1. Integrated Practice Units (IPUs) 2. Measure Cost and Outcomes 3. Move to Bundled Prices 4. Integrate Across Separate Facilities 5. Expand Excellence Across Geography 6. Enabling IT Platform Lead multidisciplinary teams, not specialty silos Become an expert in measurement and process improvement Proactively develop new bundled reimbursement options and care guarantees Champion value enhancing rationalization, relocation, and integration with sister hospitals, as well as between inpatient and outpatient units, instead of protecting turf Create networks and affiliations to expand high-value care outside the local area Become a champion for the right EMR systems, not an obstacle to their adoption and use 29 Copyright Michael Porter 2011
